Fuck me, Cheney's jumping for joy at the plane crash in Austin...
Edited on Thu Feb-18-10 12:12 PM by backscatter712
It does look like it was deliberate so far.

Just watch as the neocons sing their shrill terror song and the authoritarians come out of the woodwork demanding we be turned into even more of a police state...

Bend over America, here it comes again!

19. An intentional domestic act is certainly possible...
but, a terrorist act from a Muslim extremist cell? I think highly unlikely

29. Suicide attempt? Retribution for house foreclosure or lien?
Who knows... None of the above will help Cheney's cause in making everything an Islamic Extremist plot.

8. Ten to one says it's a domestic nutball
Either somebody doing his version of walking into the workplace and shooting it up or a Timothy McVeigh type.

Any word on what's in the office park? Businesses, government offices, liberal organizations?

10. Sounds as though the pilot was buzzing a building
and as he tried to climb out, something happened and he went into a building.

Sounds like an accident by a daredevil.

34. That was from one of the eyewitnesses on live TV
who said that is what it appeared to be. But, no-one knows the truth until after all facts are known.

Have not heard about the 300lbs of explosives.

35. A plane that weighs 1500 pounds and holds 30 gallons of gas can't destroy
most of a building without some assistance.

15. Well, if true, it's a piddling inadequate effort.

28. Oh, we're Americans
We're ready to pee our pants if Vladimir Putin's head rears up.

There is a small, but very vocal contingent ready to overreact to any provocation, real or imagined. Lucky for us, they have disproportionate representation in Congress, and outsize access to the popular media. So you can expect full nervous-nellyism to explode from the usual quarters.

From what someone I know in the Fire Department told me, it may have been a personal thing. If I get more details, I'll pass them on.

Very well might be a mentally ill person, or maybe a teabagger gone postal...

24. Rumor is, plane owner set his house on fire before going to the airport
And the IRS is housed in this building.

Sounding more and more like a teabagger.
